The existing calculation of vmpressure takes into account only the ratio of reclaimed to scanned pages, but not the time spent or the difficulty in reclaiming those pages. For e.g. when there are quite a number of file pages in the system, an allocation request can be satisfied by reclaiming the file pages alone. If such a reclaim is successful, the vmpressure value will remain low irrespective of the time spent by the reclaim code to free up the file pages. With a feature like lowmemorykiller, killing a task can be faster than reclaiming the file pages alone. So if the vmpressure values reflect the reclaim difficulty level, clients can make a decision based on that, for e.g. to kill a task early. This patch monitors the number of pages scanned in the direct reclaim path and scales the vmpressure level according to that.
